This was obviously a ploy to sow dissension, but they still couldn't help but feel a bit resentful. It was obvious that they had also been implicated by Chu Yunfan. However, they couldn't say anything about it.
After all, they had also received a lot of benefits from Chu Yunfan's existence. This kind of thing where they picked up their bowls to eat and then put down their bowls to curse … they still had a bit of conscience, so they couldn't do such a thing.
But even so, these things were just too tragic. There were so many deaths and injuries. The Chu family was really going to suffer a great loss this time.
Every stronghold was guarded by powerful warriors of the Chu family, but this time, they had also been uprooted. The losses they had suffered were also immeasurable.
If it weren't for Chu Yunfan's stabilizing force, everyone would have been waiting for Chu Yunfan to express his stance. After suffering this kind of attack and being pressured by the Major Phaseless Sect, the Chu Clan would have long since scattered.
They also understood that the Major Phaseless School was taking revenge for the Yuwen family being slaughtered. But, what made them depressed was that the Yuwen family had been slaughtered by the imperial court, so what did it have to do with them?
However, they also knew that it would be useless to reason with them at this time. After all, they were obviously picking on the soft persimmon to pinch. And, their Chu Clan was obviously the soft persimmon when compared to the Great Wei State's imperial court.
No matter how one looked at it, they were definitely much easier to provoke than the imperial court of the Great Wei State.
Thinking of this, they felt extremely bitter in their hearts!
Suddenly, at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside, followed by a voice reporting.
"Not good, family head!"
Chu Yaowei immediately stood up and walked out. Behind him, the clansmen of the Chu Clan also stood up and followed him.
After Chu Yaowei walked out of the palace, he saw a bloody scene on the plaza in front of the palace. Chu Hongcai, who had just been appointed as the crown prince of the Marquis of Loyalty, was lying in a pool of blood.
He was carried back on a stretcher!
"What happened?" Chu Yaowei hurriedly asked.
Next to Chu Hongcai was a guard who was also drenched in blood. When this guard saw Chu Yaowei, a man of steel like him actually burst into tears.
"Marquis, it's too tragic, too tragic. We had more than a hundred people, but they were all slaughtered. If it wasn't for our brothers risking their lives to stop them and let me bring the Crown Prince back, we wouldn't have been able to see Marquis again!"
This guard bawled loudly. He finally couldn't hold it in any longer after seeing over a hundred of his brothers who trained together with him being slaughtered in one fell swoop.
Chu Yaowei's face was ashen. He'd already submitted the official document regarding Chu Hongcai's title to the Board of Rites, and the Board of Rites had sent Chu Hongcai to the capital to participate in the examination.
He did not expect the Grand Phaseless Sect to be so daring, to actually send people to intercept them midway.
He had dispatched over a hundred xiantian realm guards, and there were even some divine realm experts among them. However, all of them had been wiped out. Only a single xiantian realm guard had managed to carry Chu Hongcai back. This was a clear sign of how desperate the battle was. No one else had been able to escape.
Was he trying to end the Chu Clan's bloodline here?
"They're going too far! The Grand Phaseless Sect is going too far!"
Chu Yaowei roared angrily.
The other higher-ups of the Chu Clan were also shocked. The Grand Phaseless Sect was actually this daring. They actually dared to make a move against Chu Hongcai, who was on his way to participate in the examination.
This was clearly a provocation to the dignity of the Great Wei State. At the same time, it was also a sign that they were going to shed all pretense of cordiality. If they had only made a move against the ordinary members of the Chu Clan before …
Now that they had made a move against the Marquis of Loyalty's heir, it was no longer just a warning. They were going to shed all pretense of cordiality.
"This is going too far! Could it be that they want to exterminate everyone in the Chu Clan?"
"Let's fight them to the death! Even a clay figurine has three points of anger!"
"Even if we die, we won't let the Grand Phaseless Sect have an easy time!"
The higher-ups of the Chu Clan were completely enraged when they saw Chu Hongcai's miserable state. In the entire Great Wei State, the Chu Clan could only be considered a second-rate power, not even a first-rate one.
On the other hand, the Grand Phaseless Sect was a first-rate power. It was a terrifying existence that stood above the imperial court.
That was why no one dared to bring up the matter of revenge even though they were being retaliated against. But now, Chu Hongcai's miserable state had thoroughly infuriated them. If the Grand Phaseless Sect continued to retaliate like this, it would happen to them sooner or later.
Everyone was thoroughly enraged!
"Go and invite young master Fan over!"
At this moment, Chu Yaowei thought of something and hurriedly said.
"No need, I'll do it myself!"
As soon as Chu Yaowei's voice faded, Chu Yunfan's figure already appeared in everyone's line of sight. He slowly walked over. Although he seemed slow, he was actually very fast. In just a few steps, he had already arrived in front of Chu Hongcai.
When he saw Chu Hongcai's miserable state, his sharp eyebrows immediately shot up, and his eyes widened in anger.
"Who did this?!"
Chu Yunfan liked Chu Hongcai from the bottom of his heart. In his heart, he viewed the young man as a younger brother. He was one of the few people in the Chu clan that he cared about.
Now that he saw Chu Hongcai in this state, with a piercing wound in his chest and half of his heart smashed in, blood gushing out unstoppably, he would have died a long time ago.
It was only because Chu Hongcai's cultivation had reached the divine ability realm and his vitality was terrifyingly tenacious that he had managed to survive until now.
However, his vitality was still flowing away at an alarming rate. It wouldn't be long before he truly died.
Chu Yunfan couldn't care less. He hurriedly poured a steady stream of energy into Chu Hongcai's body and began to circulate his energy to treat his injuries.
Under Chu Yunfan's treatment, the blood flowing out of Chu Hongcai's body finally stopped.
"Brother Fan …" Chu Hongcai opened his eyes and called out weakly. "Am I going to die?!"
"You won't die!"
Chu Yunfan's expression was incomparably cold.
"I know that I'm not far from death in this state. Half of my heart has been smashed in!" Chu Hongcai laughed bitterly. However, this affected his wounds, and the intense pain caused his brows to knit together.
"I said that you won't die, so you won't die!" Chu Yunfan said indifferently.
As he spoke, Chu Yunfan began to treat Chu Hongcai. He controlled his energy and continuously stimulated the vitality in Chu Hongcai's body.
